Lyrics

[Intro] (

Slow,

weeping

electric

guitar

lick) (

Soft

brushwork

on

the

snare)

Yeah,

just

one

more

time.

Before

the

morning

light

steals

the

truth

away.

[Verse 1] The

suitcase

sits

by

the

velvet

chair

A

ghost

of

you

still

hanging

in

the

air

We

built

a

kingdom

out

of

broken

glass

Thinking

our

forever

was

built

to

last

But

the

clock

on

the

mantle

just

tick-tocks

slow

Reminding

me

of

places

we

can't

go

I

trace

the

outline

of

your

ring

on

the

wood

I’

d

hold

you

back,

darlin’,

i

[Chorus] So

pack

your

secrets

and

your

southern

pride

So

pack

your

secrets

and

your

southern

pride

There’

s

nowhere

left

for

our

love

to

hide

The

ink

is

dry

on

the

promises

we

made

Watching

the

colors

start

to

slowly

fade

Goodbye

is

a

rhythm

I

never

learned

to

play

Just

a

lonesome

melody

drifting

away.

[Verse 2] I

remember

the

porch

light,

the

hum

of

the

street

The

way

you

looked

standing

in

the

summer

heat

We

thought

the

blues

was

just

a

song

on

the

shelf

Not

a

mirror

where

I’

d

find

my

lonesome

self

Now

the

coffee’

s

cold

and

the

house

is

far

too

still

I

guess

we

lost

the

fight

against

the

bitter

will

Of

time

moving

forward

while

we

stood

still

in

sand

Letting

the

future

slip

right

through

our

hand.

[Chorus] So

pack

your

secrets

and

your

southern

pride

There’

s

nowhere

left

for

our

love

to

hide

The

ink

is

dry

on

the

promises

we

made

Watching

the

colors

start

to

slowly

fade

Goodbye

is

a

rhythm

I

never

learned

to

play

Just

a

lonesome

melody

drifting

away.

[Bridge] It’

s

a

long

road

out

of

this

town

tonight

With

nothing

but

the

moon

for

a

guide

light

I

won't

call

your

name

when

the

shadows

crawl

I’

ll

just

lean

my

back

against

the

hollow

wall

It

wasn't

enough,

but

it

was

all

we

had

A

beautiful

memory

turned

quiet

and

sad.

[Chorus] So

pack

your

secrets

and

your

southern

pride

There’

s

nowhere

left

for

our

love

to

hide

The

ink

is

dry

on

the

promises

we

made

Watching

the

colors

start

to

slowly

fade

Goodbye

is

a

rhythm

I

never

learned

to

play

Just

a

lonesome

melody

drifting

away.

[Outro] Drifting

away...

into

the

gray.

Just

a

lonesome

melody.

Keep

the

ring,

keep

the

light.

I’

ll

be

alright. (

Guitar

fades

into

a

single,

trembling

final

chord) (

Silence)
